The Importance of the Expendable: Toxin–Antitoxin Genes in Plasmids and Chromosomes
Toxin–antitoxin (TA) genes were first reported in plasmids and were considered expendable genetic cassettes involved in the stable maintenance of the plasmid replicon by interfering with growth and/or viability of bacteria in which the plasmid was lost. TAs were later found in bacterial chromosomes...
